Travel to Canada from Europe and the UK

If you’re travelling from Europe or the United Kingdom, you might feel overwhelmed by Canada’s size.

However, as you’ll learn, getting here is easy – and exploring the country is a journey you’ll never forget.

Travel to Nova Scotia

If you look at a map of Canada, Nova Scotia is easy to spot. Its distinctive shape – almost completely surrounded by ocean, outlined by hundreds of harbours and coves, and dotted by scenic Cape Breton Island – stands out like a welcoming beacon to Canada’s Atlantic coast. It’s also easy to get to by land, sea and air. Once you arrive, you’ll find the people and places of Nova Scotia to be as distinctive as the land – an experience like no other!
